On February 18th, 2017, Hospice of Limestone County will be hosting their 29th annual Chili Challenge and Silent Auction at Athens High School from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event is solely a fundraising event for Hospice of Limestone County but brings the community together for a time of fun and great food! Hospice of Limestone County is a non-profit organization which is located in Athens, Alabama. This community based organization is dedicated to provide for the families of the terminally ill through both care and support.

The Chili Challenge will consist of over 30 individual groups and their most famous recipes. And guess what? You get to try them all! So be sure to come hungry. This event will also consist of a Silent Auction that will be accepting donations of goods or services. Hospice is looking for sponsors that will only have to make a simple monetary donation to this event before the Silent Auction takes place. Tickets are $10 per person and children under the age of 10 are FREE.

The variety and bold tastes in each pot of chili is sure to make your taste buds go crazy! There will be musical entertainment along with children’s activities throughout the event for you to enjoy while sampling chili and bidding at the silent auction. Hospice has strived to help the families in the Athens community and hopes to have your support in this event. Even if you are only able to make it to the event but not donate or compete in the chili challenge, everyone is invited for a time of fun, food, and support for Hospice of Limestone County!

All donations from this event will go towards meeting financial needs that will help serve families of Limestone County who require care by Hospice and assistance. Monies will also go towards the services needed to help children in their time of grieving. Be sure to bring the entire family to enjoy this event and give back to an organization that strives to help those in need.
